Just found out I was selected last year

Question please.
I paid $330 in the consulate today.
Are there any other green card fees I need to pay in the USA?

The $330 fee you paid is the DV administrative fee. You'll still need to pay $165 for the plastic/actual GC. This payment can be made either before you depart for the US or after your arrival. Your GC will not be produced if this payment isn't made.

Thank you
 
Hello friends.
It's been 2 weeks since my interview.when I check the status of my passport,it says" Your passport is still with post."
I know it means that the passport is still in the consulate but what worries me is the Administrative Processing.How do I know if it's not the case here.
They told me in the consulate,the day of interview,that my visa was approved and when I check the status of visa online,it says that my visa was issued and printed in 9/16/2016.
Thank you

if it says issued, then that implies you are fine
 
Heading to 30 days now and they are done with 2016.I do not know if this is an AP or not.I tried to call and email th3 consulate but no answer.It still says ISSUED when I check my visa status.
Back to the uncertainty zone again.

There's is no 'AP' beyond September 30th of the applicable FY. Any unresolved AP case by the end of the FY is a 'dead' case. The AP isn't going to be resolved after that. If CEAC says issued, it most likely is issued. Your passport just seems stuck 'somewhere'.

They are busy at the end of the month. Just relax and be patient.
